    March 20, 2024 - WWC - CH (Fort Worth Club): Tasted blind - Tertiary nose, a blend of animal, sweat, and red fruit. Slight bricking in the glass, with pretty big tannins. Big red fruit flavors, mixed with some olive juice and earth. Called a left bank BDX. Tasty, but not as good as the Pavie in my opinion.

    February 17, 2024 - 2nd tasting. Decanting 2-3 hours ahead will help.

    Pronounced nose intensity with notes of black fruits, spices, toast, vanilla, charr wood, smoke. Medium+ acidity and medium+ tannin. Tannin is fine and not harsh.

    December 14, 2023 - Surprisingly little sediment. Very dark. Nicely structured and ready to drink, though the wine doesn't have the full piney expansiveness of the best of Lynch-Bages. No sweetness, but it still feels like a very big wine, and could almost be mistaken for one of the more restrained Napa cabernets. (I'm thinking of Corison in particular.)
